Dear
Friend,
Have you forgotten God? If you have,
you will be turned into hell. The Bible says in Isaiah
33:14, "The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath
surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with
the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with
everlasting burnings?"
Will you be one of those that will dwell
with everlasting burnings? Hell is a terrible place,
"Where their worm dieth not and the fire is not
quenched." Mark 9:48.
You will never have relief or rest in
Hell. The Bible says, "The same shall drink of the wine
of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture
into the cup of his indignation? and he shall be
tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the
holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb: And the
smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever:
and they have no rest day nor night...." Revelation
14:10, 11a.
You are born into this world a sinner.
Romans 5:12, "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into
the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon
all men, for that all have sinned:"
You have inherited a sin nature from
Adam. People do not have to be taught how to sin. People
sin naturally! The Bible says, "Behold, he putteth no
trust in his saints; yea, the heavens are not clean in
his sight. How much more abominable and filthy is man,
which drinketh iniquity like water?" Job 15:15 and 16.
It also says, "For whosoever shall keep the whole law,
and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." James
2:10. You have not kept the whole law, so you are guilty
of all.
Do not tell me you are saved if you are
practicing the following sins in your life: "Be not
deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor
adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves
with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the
kingdom of God." I Corinthians 6:9-10.
You must repent and realize that you are
heading for Hell; and then, believe the gospel. The
gospel is.”.. Christ died for our sins according to the
scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose
again the third day according to the scriptures:" I
Corinthians 15:3-4.
The Lord Jesus Christ died a cruel death
on the cross of Calvary. He died not for Himself. He
died for you.
The Bible says, "But if we walk in the
light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one
with another and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son
cleanseth us from all sin." I John 1:7. You cannot be
saved by doing good works. You are a wretched, depraved,
ungodly, hell-bound sinner in the hands of a living God.
The Bible says, "But we are all as an unclean thing, and
all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags;..." Isaiah
64:6a. The best you can do to try to please God is as
filthy rags.
"But God commendeth his love toward us
in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 5:8. The Lord Jesus Christ suffered for you. Do
you believe that? If you do, would you right now bow
your head and receive Him as your personal Saviour? Tell
Him that you are sorry for your sin and then thank Him
for paying the price for your sin on the cross. He paid
a terrible price. The Bible says, "I gave my back to the
smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the
hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting." Isaiah
50:6. Again it says, "As many were astonied at thee; his
visage was so marred more than any man, and his form
more than the sons of men:" Isaiah 52:14. "For whosoever
shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Romans 10:13 Call upon Him now to save you. Don't delay,
for the Bible says, "Boast not thyself of to morrow: for
thou knowest not what a day may bring forth." Proverbs
27:1. ".....Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou
shalt be saved..." Acts 16:31
